Has anyone got any of the VOSS farming geared reels and there reel posts. They look decent deals on there site. Even better than eBay. But unsure about quality.
No, but they look alright from what I've seen.Has anyone got any of the VOSS farming geared reels and there reel posts. They look decent deals on there site. Even better than eBay. But unsure about quality.
We've got other geared reels but I bought 2 more reel posts recently from Voss. They are heavier than our others and 30% cheaper. The reel brackets are also heavier and much cheaper.

Yes, good value!Has anyone got any of the VOSS farming geared reels and there reel posts. They look decent deals on there site. Even better than eBay. But unsure about quality.
Reel post is good reels are ok but the plastic is a bit flimsy compared to a Gallagher or something especially the guide for the wire a few of mine have broken.

In reality it's a bit of both but mostly the terrain theory I believe. No degree of healthy living can protect you from some pathogens. Most "diseases" we treat are, however, driven by organisms that are either a normal part of our microbiome but get out of balance or ones we are commonly challenged by and pose no problem for a healthy immune system.Germ vs Terrain Theory – Which Do We Adopt To Be Healthy?
In the Western world, we are desperately obsessed with killing things off that we feel can threaten our livelihood. Whether it is germs, terrorists, or the next door neighbour, we seek to eliminate…dreddymd.com
I've not had either of those ?In reality it's a bit of both but mostly the terrain theory I believe. No degree of healthy living can protect you from some pathogens.

Vaccination against key pathogens is a very good thing. Polio anyone? Smallpox?

Rain has stopped again.
Still sticking with the 240m² cells as the math is easy and the paddocks are still 4:1 shape (8x30 metres)
Mostly oats, ryecorn and tillage radish, forage brassica and vetch.... and a lot of grass.@Kiwi Pete Sorry if I’ve already missed it, but what are they grazing in the first pic?
Thanks @Kiwi PeteBasically "survival of the fittest" @pear
a lot of what I drilled (like beans, peas, lupins, sunflower) have pretty much gone due to frost, but it's all food for something. Some (phacelia, buckwheat) didn't really like it at all.
Semi-tempted to put in a warm-season mix to compound any gains we made with this, and the other part of me says to just leave it and crack on with the grass, maybe it wouldn't like a summer canopy so much, or try it elsewhere on the ranch ((thinking sorghum/sudangrass, sunflower, chicory, turnip and plantain, to help convert moisture into extra grazing days/ha))
That's what the bookmark function is for SamThanks @Kiwi Pete
Im looking for a cover crop to go into some grass. I’m not sure to whether to buy an off the shelf mix or buy a clean cement mixer barrel and do some home mixing. I’ve got the plenty of left over beans, peas and oats in the grain store. I can add some other bits and bobs.
I have just spent almost an hour trawling through this thread to find the part of the conversation about cover crop mixes! It was back from February. I knew I had read it somewhere before!
